Requirements ¶

The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.

python = 2.7
requests >= 2.5.0
clc-sdk

Parameters ¶

Parameter	Choices/Defaults	Comments
alert_policy_id		The alert policy id to be associated to the server. This is mutually exclusive with 'alert_policy_name'
alert_policy_name		The alert policy name to be associated to the server. This is mutually exclusive with 'alert_policy_id'
anti_affinity_policy_id		The anti affinity policy id to be set for a hyper scale server. This is mutually exclusive with 'anti_affinity_policy_name'
anti_affinity_policy_name		The anti affinity policy name to be set for a hyper scale server. This is mutually exclusive with 'anti_affinity_policy_id'
cpu		How many CPUs to update on the server
memory		Memory (in GB) to set to the server.
server_ids required		A list of server Ids to modify.
state	Choices: present ← absent	The state to insure that the provided resources are in.
wait	Choices: no yes ←	Whether to wait for the provisioning tasks to finish before returning.

Notes ¶

Note

To use this module, it is required to set the below environment variables which enables access to the Centurylink Cloud - CLC_V2_API_USERNAME, the account login id for the centurylink cloud - CLC_V2_API_PASSWORD, the account password for the centurylink cloud
Alternatively, the module accepts the API token and account alias. The API token can be generated using the CLC account login and password via the HTTP api call @ https://api.ctl.io/v2/authentication/login - CLC_V2_API_TOKEN, the API token generated from https://api.ctl.io/v2/authentication/login - CLC_ACCT_ALIAS, the account alias associated with the centurylink cloud
Users can set CLC_V2_API_URL to specify an endpoint for pointing to a different CLC environment.
